WHEREAS the Oakland County Board of Commissioners approved the
Public Service allocations for Title VI for the FY79 by Resolution
No. 8738 ; and

for FY79 will experience severe financial and organizational hardship

review of performance objectives will be submitted to the Public
Services Committee and the Oakland County Board of Commissioners.

NARRATIVE
New Horizons is a sheltered workshop for the handicapped. The
Agency was originally funded under Title I. They continue to
receive $95,825 for placement services under Title I.
Their funding under Title VI was intended to be temporary. Their
need occurred at a time when additional funds were available in
Title VI. Because of federal constraints on our allocations and
the needs of other agencies to be funded, the Manpower Department
determined that New Horizons should be brought back to its original
funding source and that the funds that became available be used to
support other agencies.
This abrupt transition has created a hardship on the Agency and
the Manpower Department feels that a six month funding transition
is warranted.
